Despite the victory over Portugal in the final 22:21, the third round of the qualifying tournament for the World Cup, no one was at the celebration in the camp of Serbian youth team. No two wins and a draw with the Netherlands in the first round 25-25, were not enough to cope placement at the World Championships in Russia. Faktor goal difference has ruled in favor of the Dutchwoman.
Coach junior women national team of Serbia, the Government Šimičić:
– I’d congratulate girls on a good game against a strong opponent. We should not forget that Portugal is a violation of the best players against the Netherlands led the four difference in the 37th minute. This moment is crucial not only to win the Netherlands, but also the overall winner of the tournament. It is very difficult when you do not lose a single one, and not make it any further. Would like to thank the Handball Federation of Serbia, which has enabled us once again to host the qualifying turnira.Teško at this time to analyze why we were not able to achieve a place in Russia. It can be viewed in several aspects – Šimičić said and added:
– It can be viewed through six training sessions, after seven months of the EP that we had to prepare. It can also be viewed in the first 20 minutes against Holland poor, the unfortunate last minute of the same match. It can be viewed through the violation best Portuguese players at a crucial time, as the Dutchwoman allowed to win, and can not be viewed through the incredible second-half match Netherlands – Bosnia and Herzegovina, which ended 34: 5th In any case, I congratulate the girls have shown that they have the qualities that justify this call and household, or simply have not had any luck. In any case, congratulations on passing through the Netherlands. I wish them all the best
